According to a media report, Russia and the United States have arrived at an agreement that may see the end of hostilities in Syria. Apparently, the deal begins with a cease-fire beginning of, sunset Monday.

The report further states that Syrian forces will end combat missions in certain areas, and the US and Russia will jointly, establish a centre that will enable them to combat the forces of jihadists.

Is it possible that the Syrian authorities will honour the agreement and begin the process of rebuilding a country that has been devasted by civil war?

The majority of the ‘Middle East’ must welcome the collaboration of Russia and US given that the United Nations High Commission for Refugees alleges that there have been 4.8m million Syrian refugees, fled to Turkey, Jordan, Egypt and Iraq.

In my opinion, if the US and Russia seriously target those jihadists and so-called ISIS terrorists, then it will hopefully, allow both the Opposition and the Government to begin the process of uniting the country. I wish.
